Genes affected

AIRE (HGNC:360): (autoimmune regulator) This gene encodes a transcriptional regulator that forms nuclear bodies and interacts with the transcriptional coactivator CREB binding protein. The encoded protein plays an important role in immunity by regulating the expression of autoantigens and negative selection of autoreactive T-cells in the thymus. Mutations in this gene cause the rare autosomal-recessive systemic autoimmune disease termed autoimmune polyendocrinopathy with candidiasis and ectodermal dystrophy (APECED).

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 62 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 21-44286017-ACG-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr21-44286017-ACG-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1458570.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala5Glyfs*29) in the AIRE gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in AIRE are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11524731, 26141571). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with AIRE-related conditions. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
